Milwaukee Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) to play in Game 1 of NBA Finals vs. Phoenix Suns, sources say

As the Milwaukee Bucks play their first NBA Finals game in nearly half a century Tuesday night against the Phoenix Suns, they will do so with superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo in the lineup.

Antetokounmpo, who suffered a hyperextended left knee on an awkward and ugly-looking fall in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals a week ago against the Hawks in Atlanta, will play in Game 1 of the NBA Finals in Phoenix, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

Antetokounmpo was listed as doubtful for Games 5 and 6 of the East finals, and was ruled out early in the afternoon before each of those games.
